Truth is ‘Payment System Plus Apple/Android’
The answer to an age-old philosophical question: What is truth?
Everyone talks about truth. We all want to know we’re making true statements. Or, at least, we want others to believe we are.
Here Are a Handful of Elon Musk’s Tweets about Truth
Beware advertisers “dressed as truth tellers.”
Is physics “the search for truth”? Maybe! Or maybe it’s the quest for the definition of truth. I wouldn’t know.
Hey: “If Twitter was not truthful here, what else is not true?” OMG. Think about. If Twitter is lying, maybe physics isn’t true.
Whatever is already coming true may as well be “a documentary.”
But the media, you know, doesn’t seek truth. It seeks clicks.
“Is it really true that…” Well, is it? If I make a sensationalized, barely credible statement about small children for purposes of transphobic fearmongering, does the statement become true because I said it on Twitter?
Of course it does, and so Twitter is “becom[ing] by far the most reliable source of truth.”
